Deployment presentation, Drupalcon London - August 2011.TRANSCRIPT
With One Click
Marcus DeglosPrincipal Engineer - Capgemini@manarth
Can you make a build with ONE step?
Starting from square one
• Contract ✔• Business analysis ✔• Design and wireframes ✔• Ready to start coding – right?
Where do you start?
• Linux VM/WAMP/MAMP/XAMPP/manual install of apache, MySQL, PHP…?
• Create an empty repository• Download latest Drupal to your checkout• Start coding?– Downloading contrib modules– Click + configure– Custom modules and themes?
Stop!
Have you thought about…• Environmental consistency?• Deploying to live?• Testing?
Two phases
• Cold start: installing from scratch• Updating a live site
Cold start considerations
• Script everything.• Tools include:– drush– drush make– install profiles– distributions (which typically use a complex install
profile)
Start simple
Web server
DB
Varnish
Deployment – what’s in a name?
• At its simplest, it’s:Move code from repo to server
• But there’s more…– Switching symlinks– Linking up file paths?– Clearing caches– Running update.php– Post-deploy tasks:
• DB changes?• Drush commands?• Notify external systems?
Pushing codeIt’s all been done before
• FTP• Manual deployment – SSH/rsync• Bash script• Rube goldberg machine• Capistrano/Webistrano• Ant/Phing• Jenkins• Aegir• Drush• Git commands• RPM packages
Simple tools for simple problems
• With a simple setup – a single host, or a separate db and web server – a simple deployment tool may be enough.
A simple deployment script#!/bin/bash
# Version to deployversion=release-1.0
# SVN source of tags. Presume that credentials are already cached.svn=https://svn.example.com/my_web_site/tags
# Docroot is a symlink to the current checkout.docroot=/var/www/current
# Folder which contains each checkout.destination_folder=/var/www/# Checkout to a timestamped folder (format: YYYYMMDD-HHMM)timestamp=`date +%Y%m%d-%H%M`destination=$destination_folder/$timestamp
svntag=$svn/$versionsvn co $svntag $destination
# Switch symlink.rm -f $docrootln -s $destination $docroot
# Clear caches with Drush.drush -l $docroot cc all

Why is this complex to deploy?
• Multiple hosts• Multiple roles• Different actions for different roles
Managing this with a bash script will drive you insane
Deployment concepts
Hosts- 192.168.20.4- web1.example.com
Roles- Webserver- Reverse proxy- Network
management- Data cache- Database- Authentication
host
Tasks- Clear data cache- Checkout code
Actions- Deploy to stage- Close site for
maintenance
Environments, hosts, roles
Demo172.16.25.10 = web, cache, db, proxy
Live192.168.20.30 = web, cache192.168.20.31 = web, cache192.168.20.32 = web, cache192.168.20.40 = db192.168.20.50 = proxy
Hosts Roles
Environ-ments
Tasks, actions, targets
Recipe- Deploy code- Restart memcache
